Shortlist revealed for YM Liverpool Property & Business Awards 2025

Organisers of the YM Liverpool Property & Business Awards have today (19 September) revealed the full shortlist for November’s ceremony.

A staple of the city’s corporate calendar since 2004, the awards will take place at the Crowne Plaza Liverpool City Centre on 27 November, bringing together industry representatives from across the Liverpool City Region to reflect on another year of achievements.

Accolades will be handed out across a diverse range of categories including ‘Property Developer of the Year’, ‘Best Large New Home Development’, ‘Apartment Development of the Year’, ‘Property Industry Supplier’, ‘Residential Property Agency of the Year’, ‘LCR Business of the Year’ and ‘City Region Champion’.

During November’s event, Nuala Gallagher, corporate director of city development at Liverpool City Council, will take part in a special Q&A with YM Liverpool editor Lawrence Saunders.

Gallagher will reflect on the successes and challenges she has experienced since taking up the role in 2023 and provide an update on the progress of some of Liverpool’s most significant development and regeneration projects.
